you
have heard of bad habits, but did you know you may have
bad habits when you are sleeping. harmful habits during
sleeping like grinding of the teeth (bruxism) can
flatten and weaken teeth to the point that each tooth
would need to have a full coverage crown to restore
function, longevity, and strength.
if
you are like me and want to prevent damaging your teeth,
a custom-fitted night guard will prevent this excessive
wear. this night guard is made out of hard acrylic
that snaps onto your teeth at night. only hard acrylic
night guards will work to correct this disorder. soft
night guards allow teeth to shift causing the bite to
misaligned; you do not want lose your perfect bite or
straight teeth. if you are using a soft night guard or
are not sure if your night is made with the correct
material, visit your dentist for a night guard and tmj
consultation. |
